Yes, it is time. There is plenty of evidence that there are other drugs that are far more dangerous/addictive and that have less medicinal value that are legalized. (i.e. alcohol) Marijuana should be legalized to remove the negative views of it for those that need it medically. It is time to remove Big Pharma from the equation and allow people to choose natural options to control those things that ail them.

While I feel strongly that healthcare should be single-payer, the largest issue at hand is campaign finance because with a corrupt campaign finance system, programs like universal healthcare cannot be put into place.
